Podders are Gonna Pod

How come him and Stapleton stopped do ya know? I enjoyed their yt channel, until they did the patreon limitation on it.

Barely breaking 200 subscribers a factor I’d say

Really? Interesting. They’ve a hilarious interview with Christy Heffernan from about 2023 which was great content alone.

Saint got a new 9-5 job.

Where’s he this weather?

I’m working from home currently so loads of time for podcasts.
Verneys podcasts talk some amount of rubber imo.
His Hurling one this week focused more on John Mullanes u15 Camogie team at the national feile than it did on Tipp v Galway. He goes out of his way not to mention anything positive about the premier county.

The football one begins with approximately 15 minutes ranting by Pat split season Spillane rather than talking about the actual fucking football.

Jamie Wall and Liam Rushe were a decent listen on the free Second Captains podcast this week. Pat Spillane keeps trying and failing to direct conversations towards Sligo matches. I enjoyed Philly Mac’s articles in the paper but he doesn’t seem overly knowledgable on the Indo podcast and quite bitter towards Kerry/Aidan O’ Shea for a lad who regularly beat both during his career. The Indo podcast is better when it’s actual GAA journalists like Conor McKeon.

Maybe but unlike Stapleton he’s likeable which is important for a podcast

I must give Wall a listen.

The majority of GAA podcasts is spent on general topics like split season or whether there should be a replay for the Munster final instead of focusing on actual specifics or insights about the game. Enda mcginley seems to be one of the few outliers in this regard.

Stapleton has moved onto a real job.

The amount of time wasted on these GAA Pods is so annoying, it’s what makes Wooly & Examiner football pod so good.

Rory O’Neill is a terror for it on the RTE podcast. It’s also a bit weird why they have a producer pretending to be an analyst.

He’s a strange fish and like a lot of cork people he will always revert back to Cork eventually.

You’d think a producer would know how to keep it on topic.

Despite all that he’s probably more knowledgeable than that weirdo Shane McGrath

The OTB hurling one is an even worse offender for this than Dalo’s used to be.

There is an incredible amount of GAA content out there at the moment and its cheap to be honest. I enjoy most of them and the various versions of the analysis. The Examiner football podcast is the best of them I think. I enjoy the OTB football one also. Woolly is the best of the hurling ones apart from when Brady appears on the Maroon & White pod.

At least Dalo and co can be funny on a very odd occasion. Them boys on OTB bar when Skehill goes off on one are so unfunny it’s untrue.

I’m mad into podcasts when Dublin are winning. Media blackout when they lose.

Cyril Farrell is my favourite analyst. His love of the game and his overall soundness always shines through. Wooly is also a good hurling presenter in a Bill o Herlihy kind of way. He doesn’t pretend to know more than he does and hence asks good questions. He’s still a bit of a cunt mind.

Skehill is ignorant and Murphy is too cute to say anything edgy
